Emirates extends online

Emirates has extended its online check-in to 48 hours before departure, from 24 hours, effective immediately. Customers around the world can check in online on both desktop and mobile devices from 48 hours to 90 minutes before flight departure. The increased lead time offers customers greater flexibility in choosing their seats, and reduces waiting times at the airport as they would already have their boarding passes before arriving at the airport. Passengers can then drop their luggage at online check-in counters before heading straight through to immigration and security. For flights to and from the United States, while online check-in is available 48 hours before departure, boarding passes will only be issued 24 hours in advance.

“Amazing trip with little effort to plan!” - Felt completely safe, as I was a solo female traveler, on my tour with Ashoka! This was the easiest trip I have ever planned. I emailed a few tour companies and Menaka was the most responsive. You simply tell him, how long you are there for, what you want to do, where you like to go and what type of hotels you want to stay in and he sends you options to easily design our trip in Sri Lanka. It was absolutely gorgeous there and I can't wait to go back! I did a safari, experienced amazing hotels with magnificent food and views, experienced local food and trades, fed some elephants and did a little shopping. Thank you both Ashoka and Menaka for a memorable vacation!!

“Perfect organization” - Our trip was perfect organized by the owner of the agency, Mr. Menaka. Whenever I had a question before and during our trip, he answered immediately, no matter what time it was. We had different drivers during our tour, all of them were very friendly and helpful and always on time. We found the price for the tour reasonable (comparing to other agencies).The vehicles were new and we always felt safe with all of our drivers. Only the WIFI in the car did not work. I do recommend Mr. Menaka and his agency and would travel with them again.

“Family vacation in Sri Lanka with Off2SriLanka” - We just returned from a fantastic week traveling through Sri Lanka. Whilst we were very late with our planning and getting organised for this trip, Menaka was super helpful and patient to accommodate us. He is very responsive and basically helped us set up our itinerary in just a matter of days. Our driver, Roshan Nelson, is a fantastic guy. Not only did he navigate us safely through the sometimes crazy Sri Lankan traffic, he also turned out to be a great guide, sharing all there is to know about his great country, the people, the culture, food and nature. We traveled with our two young children (3 & 6) and they absolutely adored their "Uncle Nelson" - he was very kind, attentive and patient with them and a friend to all of us. I highly recommend Off2SriLanka and Roshan Nelson to anyone considering a trip through SriLanka!

“Highly recommended tour and guide” - We found Off 2 Sri Lanka Tour based on good comments on Trip Advisor and it didn't disappoint us! We received speedy and informative email response during our booking arrangement. They are willing to offer tailor made itinerary based on our needs. Our driver Asiri brought us wonderful time on Sri Lanka. He spent 10 days with us and we truly felt he's more than a driver but also a professional guide... And our photographer!! He is attentive and always listen to our needs. His outgoing and cheerful personality brought us lots of fun during the trip. Plus he is a very safe driver

“Fantastic trip with off2srilanka private tours” - We just came back a week or so ago from a fabulous trip for 2 weeks around Sri Lanka. We arranged everything with Menaka who is the owner of the company. Menaka is fantastic, returns your emails promptly and nothing was too much trouble. Between him and I we worked out a very diverse trip. We started in Columbo and was soon bathing with elephants, walking ancient unesco sites, climbing Sigiriya rock , tracking Hortons Plains and we also climbed Adam's Peak, what a climb !!!!We had the BEST driver Cicil who drove us anywhere we wanted to go, suggested many things and checked every restaurant and accommodation for cleanliness. The beaches in Sri Lanka were beautiful as well. My husband Paul and I could not recommend Menaka and Cicil more highly for anyone who wants a stress free holiday with lots of fantastic thing to do and see. I would recommend this tour to those who are planning their trip to Sri Lanka.

“10 nights in Sri Lanka” - We are a couple in late 50s early 60s and have recently toured with off2srilanka. We found them on trip advisor!!! Great experience from airport pickup to airport drop off. We spent the bulk of the time with Namal as our driver guide. He is an excellent guide. We covered a lot of territory with 3 nights in Sigriya, 2 nights in Kandy, 1 night in Ella , 1 night near Yala and 1 night at unawatuna plus first and last nights at Negombo. Namal "made “us try a lot of food we would have been too scared to try ourselves. Fantastic. He is also very knowledgeable about Buddhism and Sri Lankan history. The owner of the company Menaka spoke to us several times during the trip to ensure our needs were met - a very nice touch which helps any little issues from becoming annoyances. I think we got a better room a few times because of Namal' s speaking to the owners of guesthouses we stayed at. We stayed at family run guest houses suggested by off2gosrilanka which we checked on trip advisor before agreeing to them. All were most satisfactory or better.

“Best tour agency in Sri Lanka” - We travelled to Sri Lanka in March 2016. I choose Off 2 Sri Lanka to organize our trip. They did an excellent job! I had a plan already, but Menaka gave us suggestions, so I could change it at some points to use our time more efficient. They also offered us very nice accommodations, where we got the best rooms, with wonderful view!Our driver, Tissa is a gentleman! He knows a lot about Sri Lanka, he showed us lovely places to eat, he was always in time, he was always available via phone. And not at last he is a perfect driver! He made our trip unforgettable! I would like to say thank you for them for this lifetime experience!
